3446 reviewsThe Royal Island Resort and Spa is an "experienced" hotel. Experience is evident in the ups and downs of the infrastructure and the high quality of tourist services. The sandy beach did not need swimming shoes, the rich reef at a distance of 1 to 30 meters from the shore gave space for snorkelling and swimming like in a natural, large pool with warm water. I chose the maximum plan with a stay in a villa with a jacuzzi and a swimming pool, and from this perspective, it describes my impressions. Object- + Maintained in colonial style, perfectly preserved, it provides all comforts in a variety of standards, places to stay and a range of nutrition plans and activities. + looks much better than you can see in photos or YT videos + Two restaurants, the main one and the à la carte restaurant, provide enough variety for meals. In addition, there is a bar open 24 hours next to the restaurant, where you can choose excellent snacks and full restaurant dishes. Perfectly prepared alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks complemented the rest of the attractions + Social life was concentrated in front of the bar by the large swimming pool, with a separate bar for swimmers and a place to relax in the jacuzzi jets + Daily morning spraying ensured peace from mosquitoes, especially during evening activities and walks • With a longer stay, I missed the alternative of nutrition in the form of a different cuisine in a separate bar or restaurant, or the organization of more often themed evenings. Villa + The villa was refreshed with a plasma TV and Wi-Fi access. Each cottage has its own Internet access + pool with daily water pH checked and cleaned, swept pool surroundings. An outdoor shower was a convenience + A swing with a roof completed the impression of a private paradise + Very clean building and surroundings cleaned twice a day, along with constant care of the minibar. • I was with an adult daughter, and I missed the option of two separate beds instead of an extra bed. I lost my bed in the 😊 draw :)) • Bathroom refreshed without caring for one style (my personal perception) Leisure activities + the price of the package includes a maximum of 4 attractions offered by the Resort, including a 60-minute spa for each of us 😊 + The package includes the possibility of daily use of snorkelling equipment + In the pool bar every day, music/bands could be danced to, and the music was not disturbing 😊 quite often + a variety of water sports available at an additional cost + a gym in a separate room, modern and well-air-conditioned + Spa like a fairy tale land where you enter as if through the gates of a seraglio • The duo is permanently employed, great as a complement to evenings in restaurants, while the repertoire for the dance part is too nostalgic. • The exorbitantly expensive water sports offered allowed this centre to lead a very nice, lazy life on the island without the crowds of tourists to serve A team of employees The hospitality amazes and delights from the beautiful gesture of welcome to the readiness to help and professional service. An international team has developed an amazing atmosphere in this place. Focus on the attack to make the stay on the island as pleasant as possible. Thank you to everyone, especially people with whom I had personal digital or analogue 😊 contact. + Francis – General Manager – quick and precise feel for your needs – thank you for choosing the villa + Tini – the best concierge – a wonderful combination of charm and passion for her profession and personalisation of service – thank you for your care and especially for the return of the seaplane + Lakshi – a welcome cocktail of cordiality and a smile when crossing the threshold of the restaurant + Mithila – manager – professionalism in every way, high personal culture, care for maintaining service standards every day, if he changes his place of work, I will go there knowing that he will take care of everything + Abdulla – experience, composure and professionalism that I know from European restaurants, the ability to make small talk, serve everyone their favourite choices, although when I got my coffee in a soup dish at the end of my stay, I decided that it was time to leave 😊 :) + Sharan – a waiter from the bar – a professional who delights me and my daughter, educated with an incredible natural sense of his customers. An excellent, helpful approach to each guest, very high personal culture and palpable cordiality made not only the place but also the time spent in this bar come back in my mind today + Samantha (call me Sam 😊 )- manager – obligatory, exact, inscrutable – I didn't have the opportunity to talk to him for more than 5 minutes + Shristi – (if I 😉 remember correctly) waitress from the other restaurant – cordiality and inner warmth that emanates and has a soothing effect. Her very presence at the table was a pleasure for the spirit and for the eye. My daughter and I were always waiting for the moments when she would serve us and spread this relaxing mood + Cooks – admiration for the skills, smile and efficiency of working with hobs + Remon – housekeeper – the careful and endearingly polite good spirit of our order – thank you + Other hard-working employees 7 days a week who keep this department in excellent condition • I'd rather be asked where I'm from than be stigmatised by one country • A waiter who was offended that we were not sitting at his table should not "not see" us so ostentatiously every day In my opinion, the facility gains that it has a unique character and NO villa on the water. After all, regular guests come here for this atmosphere and the style of an old colonial hotel. Beachfront villas should get lighting and a unified character in the style of renovated bathrooms. In general, much better than I expected and in fact, the price includes everything for which I would pay 60-90% more for a stay in other places.
